Customer Review

It is impossible for me to perform adequately describe Mr. McCarthy's style, but suffice it to say That my inability to offer Sufficient insight is precluded by the factthat we simply do not speak the same language. In the hands of Mr. McCarthy, the english language utterly transcends its common base and usage, and instead Becomes truly lyrical.
Anyone who's ever traveled the Trans-Pecos region, or been to the Border wants Find Themselves Transported there once more As They follow the stories of John Grady Cole and Billy Parham. Mr. McCarthy Describes the area perfectly, and with the expertise of a true native.
